[Title] => If the poor carabao could only talk back
[Summary] => One pines for inspiration from Aesop whose creatures were gifted with personification, say, the much maligned carabao being able to talk back. It's a pity for the carabao as beast of burden, the uncrowned national animal to the farming folk, to be the butt of unfair barb.
In Erap's heyday as the self-anointed man of the masses, he nursed this claim by gimmickry, speaking in broken or slanted English to endear himself to the "common tao". Thus, the term "carabao" English.

[Title] => More 1908 arithmetic
[Summary] => The Thomasites’ first school year wasn’t all rosy. They had arrived in Manila mid-1901 in the midst of squabbling about the directions of Filipino mass education. Priests were resisting the relegation of religion to only after classes. Caciques were sending their children to private sectarian schools, totaling 1,329 with enrolment of 90,023 in early 1903. By contrast, 200,000 peasant kids were packed in 1,633 public schools. And even that number dropped significantly during harvest time or disruptions by US Army pacification drives.

[Title] => Three important events occurred on Aug. 23
[Summary] => Last Thursday, we wrote about the 19th anniversary of the assassination of Ninoy Aquino in the airport that now bears his name. There is another great tragedy that also happened on Aug. 21 and that was the bombing of the Liberal Party candidates at Plaza Miranda in 1971. Former Senator Jovito Salonga was one of the victims of that terroristic attack. Both tragedies bear something in common. To this day, the authorities have not pinpointed the masterminds of those two heinous crimes. The soldiers who escorted Ninoy down the plane are all serving a prison term.

[Title] => Loving Americans with goo-goo eyes
[Summary] => 
I’m rightist, revanchist, reactionary, totally un-PC, and a shock trooper of a potential fascist. So you can take it with a grain of iodized salt whenever I expound on my political and ideological views.
They can be as shameless as the decades-old insistence of one Atty. Ely Pamatong – you know, that fella who sports a turban in front of the U.S. Embassy while leading his pro-Am demonstrators – that all Pinoys born before July 4, 1946 are American citizens.
